You fogeys should do something more positive than reflexively whining like a Pavlovian pup over every little thing O does.
Like giving us a real opposition party – it’s boring being the winner when there is no competition.

It is like I keep saying, el rapido: the more The Clown™ does things like this, the more people he will tick off, and, in the end, the more people will vote to throw him out of office in 2012. Mark my words.

Yeah, “money” is just people’s life’s blood, something they sweat all their lives to earn just so the big O can wipe his arse with it. People shouldn’t “whine” about it because he “cares” while he’s wiping his arse…

They’ve had 5 months to stockpile parts and inventory. Bankruptcy today is not the same as it was 5 months ago. And if they did go bankrupt then and somehow managed to survive. The cost of bankruptcy restructuring (essentially preparing after the fact) and the state of the marketplace, they would still be going to the well.

All the other automakers are burning through their capital or getting support from their governments. Chrysler doesn’t have any capital thanks to Daimler bleeding them and leaving them dysfunctional.

I just listen to a former Sloan Fellow and Indiana Governors’ Fellow, Danny L. McDaniel, say that this will be the first time in American history that a union will asset strip a corporation. In this case, the UAW asset stripping Chrysler. Is this true?
